(20,709 posts)Probably, IMO, she did it for political reasons, rather than actually thinking it was a good idea. But either way, bad move, and also political miscalculation. But the more important question is, if she were president, would she do something as stupid as invading Iraq. And the answer is, obviously, no.
Defends bankers and lobby is way too vague. What does that even mean? What financial regulations does she oppose that, say, Elizabeth Warren supports? Because from what I see, she supports derivatives regulations, closing the carried interest tax loophole, etc.
The thing is, looking at actual policies, as opposed to looking at pictures of her sitting next to Jamie Dimon, the extreme anti-Hillary stuff simply doesn't seem rational. When you take into account that the limiting factor is going to be congress either way, I don't see that there would be a dramatic difference between Pres Warren and Pres Clinton.
